Your Local Health Food Store
Independent is best, because
profits stay in the community, but if you can’t
find a mom and pop store, make your way to
whichever chain is available. While you might
think that your local Whole Foods is just for
rich people, you can actually fill your cart with
organic food for less than you might spend at a
conventional market. The secret is to keep it
simple: avoid packaged and luxury items and stick
to the produce section, the bulk bins, and just a
few items from the dairy case. You’ll find that
there are weekly specials, coupons, and even a
less expensive store brand as well. If you can
avoid impulse purchases and read labels
carefully, a trip your local health food store
need not break the bank.
